Respect for Learners


It is expected that, on and off the clinical site, all educator licensure candidates conduct themselves in a professional and ethical manner. This includes treating all students, families, cooperating teachers and school personnel and licensure program personnel with dignity and respect. Additionally, all candidates should familiarize themselves with and adhere to the Illinois Educator Code of Ethics.
